Is this the same as Bees algorithm? Andreas Kaufmann (talk) 21:58, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I asked myself the same question. I had a brief look at both algorithms and it seems to me that they are indeed very similar. Using the right parameters the Bee algorithm should function like the ABC (e.g. using half of the population as foragers). Oddly neither of the two groups working on ABC and BCO respectively recognize/cite the other algorithm in their articles even though they are similar and sometimes applied to similar problems.
